What are your favorite family games to play?
Our kids start getting a little anxious and want to DO things with us, imagine that. So we usually break out a game when we aren’t overloaded with afternoon activities or homework. Some of our favorites are:
– Skip bo – A favorite when I was young. All you need to know is how to count to 10.
– Sorry – SO-RRY! Another favorite from when I was young!
– Monopoly (all the different random versions we have!)
– Crazy 8’s – Okay, they don’t play it that much but I love it!
– Uno – Of course!
– Arne – From the makers of Uno… We got this game on vacation and they LOVE it. They love bumping people out, doubling their score, and X’ing out other people’s.
Someone got us ‘Beat the Parents‘ at a birthday in the last year or so. It was unopened so we got it out and the kids just LOVED it. Well, until the parents won and then they pouted. So next time we might split one parent with a child. Except one parent doesn’t know any answers… so the kids don’t want to be paired up with that person.
I wonder who that is.
Beat the Parents is hysterical though because it has a wild card where you do a few funny jokes or skits or something. Here the kids are posing as Aladdin with the muscle arms.
Any other fun games we should pick up? We have a TON in our closet, we should probably go through and try one out.
